Behind the Scenes

Debbie Ray and I (CJ) were taking pictures the other day and she says to me, "Don't tilt your head". Now I know why.

There's never a shortage of delicious food here at KTDY, be it king cake or boudin or anything else you can imagine.

Those who listen to the KTDY Morning Show on Mondays, know that I have a friend from work who leaves inspirational notes in my mailbox over the weekend and I find them Monday mornings.

Our former intern, Natalie, experienced 'Snowmageddon' first hand and we talked to her about what it was like for a Louisiana native.

Recently at a radio conference in Shreveport, I hung out with one of my favorite television personalities...Tracy Wirtz from TV3. And for some reason, all of sudden, before I knew it were were having a cellphone camera war.

A bunch of media folk from the Lafayette radio market recently traveled to Shreveport, La. for a radio summit, including the lovely and very camera shy (on some occasions), Debbie Ray.

Friday, I told you about a moral dilemma that unfolded here at Townsquare Media. A person who identified him/herself as only "The minor Earthquake" accidentally dislodged a bag of fruit snacks while trying to retrieve their own purchase from the vending machine. This individual left the snacks on our receptionist Janet's desk, with a note, detailing the situation. She taped them to the vending machine, where they remained until Tuesday afternoon.

Here's a glimpse of the thrills that go on behind the scenes at KTDY...

The KTDY air staff along with other broadcasters from the Lafayette market had a radio conference in Shreveport recently. The KTDY vehicle transported Nathan Pike from News Talk KPEL and JayCee and CJ from 99.9 KTDY. JayCee was behind the wheel.

If you listen to CJ and Debbie Ray in the morning on KTDY, you know that every Monday morning a guy that I see on the weekends in our building leaves inspirational sayings in my mailbox. They are handwritten and the first time I read them is when you hear them on the air.

We said good-bye to my sweet little rat terrier Chi Chi yesterday. She was almost sixteen years old and lived with kidney failure for the last few months. Chi Chi came into our lives about eleven years ago, when we agreed to foster her. She had lived with an elderly woman who had to move into a nursing home and was living with a family that was not a good fit...

KTDY receptionist Janet is so funny. She's one of those people who can make stuff funny even when it's not. She always has a smile on her face and laughs a lot!

Watch CJ laugh 'til he cries as he watches people react to being on slingshot rides.

Don't you just hate to swallow pills. Some are so large and then if you have to take a hand full every day, do you take them all at one time to get it over with or do you spend the extra time and swallow them one at a time? Scientists have come up with the best methods to swallowing pills.

CJ declared it to be the best gift ever (no disrespect to anyone else who's given him gifts!)

CJ's training for the Insane Inflatable 5K intensifies with just one week left to go, and he gains a new body part.

Every year, Debbie Ray takes winners and their guests in a limo (mammosine) to get mammograms for Breast Health Awareness Month. Today was the day!

This amazing Elvis Presley gift is one that's going make me do some research. It was a gift for my 51st birthday which was September 24, the giver remains a mystery.
